Northern California

This past weekend Rafa and I took a trip to Northern California to visit our friends Jimmy and Eli. They live in Santa Rosa. I fell in LOVE with it! I did not know it was so lush and green!! The hills and all the trees. I love it! I could definitely see myself living in that area. Rafa and I both really liked Santa Rosa, Sonoma, and San Rafael. While we were there Jimmy and Eli were great hosts. We went to Dillon Beach, San Fransisco, the Russian River, and Sonoma to see the vineyards.

Dillon Beach

The drive from Utah was a little long but we had so much fun and plan on going back!!

Quilt

My first quilt!! At work I do a sewing group with my friend Jan. Well I don't do much since I am just learning about sewing machines but I have learned alot. With the help of some others I completed my T-shirt quilt and although it was difficult it was lots of fun!

I love my quilt!!

Blue Angels


Several weeks ago Rafa and I went up to Idaho Falls to visit the family. While we were there we were able to see the Blue Angels. It was lots of fun and the kids just loved it, which made it that much more exciting! It was the first time I had seen them and I thought it was pretty cool.

Part of the gang. We got to watch it at Becky's friend's house who lives close to the airport. It was nice to be at a house with comforts and no long lines!
I love these kids!!




Blue Angels!!

And thanks Staci and Kyle for coming back from the cabin early to see us! :)
